Here's my test in a nutshell: # ON WINDOWS: install Cygwin and enable cygsshd ssh-host-config -y # set up authorized keys, etc to make things easier # LINUX: Create a 2GB random file on Linux: dd if=/dev/urandom of=/tmp/bigfile.bin bs=1M count=2000 # WINDOWS: rsync

cygrunsrv + sshd + rsync = 20 times too slow -- throttled?

2021-08-24 Thread Chris Roehrig
I have a network of Windows, Linux and Mac machines and I use rsync to synchronize various directories between them. I'm trying to figure out why my rsync transfers are so slow (<4 MB/s) only when the remote endpoint is Cygwin rsync over sshd (with both a Linux or Cygwin rsync client). In

This is an update to the latest upstream release of xfig (including fig2dev/transfig). Note Integration of bitmaps additionally requires the installation of the netpbm package. Some optional functionality of XFig requires other packages, for instance from TeXLive, to be installed. --
